Aqualung
You may find it handy to substitute (4)'s with the (-4*) equivalent
-5 3 -3* -4* 4* -4* -5 3 -3* -4* 4* -4*
Sitting on a park bench Eyeing little girls with bad intent
-5 3 -3* 4 4* 4 -5 -5* -5* -5* -5* -3* 4 4* 4
Snot running down his nose Greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes
-5 -3* 4 4* 4* 4 -5 -5* -5* -3* -3* 4 4 4* 4 -5* 6*
Hey Aqualung
-5* -5* -3* -3*
Drying in the cold sun Watching as the frilly panties run
-5 3 -3* 4 4* 4 -5 -5* -5* -5* -5* -5* 6* 6* 6* 6* -5* 5 -5*
Hey Aqualung
-5* -5* -3* -3*
Feeling like a dead duck Spitting out pieces of his broken luck
-5 3 -3* 4 4* 4 -5 -5* -5* -5* 5 -5* -5* 6* 6* 6* -5* 5
Ohh Aqualung
-5* -5* -3* -3*
Sun streaking cold An old man wandrin' lonely
-5 4 -3* 4 -3* -3* 4 -3* -5 4 -3* 3
Taking time the only way he knows
-3 -3* 4 -3* -3* 3 3 -1 -2
Leg hurting bad As he bends to pick a dog-end
-5 4 -3* 4 -3* 4 -3* 4 -3* -5 4 -3* 3
He goes down to the bog and warms his feet
-3 -3* -3* 4 -3* -3 3 3 3 -1 -2
Feeling alone The army's up the road
-5 4 -3* 4 -3* -3* 4 -3* -5 -5 -3* 3
Salvation a-la-mode And a cup of tea
-3 -3* -3* 4 -3* -3 3 3 3 3 -1 -2
Aqualung my friend Don't you start away uneasy
-5 -5 4 -3* 4 -3* 4 -3* 4 -3* -5 4 -3* 3
You poor old sod, you see, it's only me
-3 -3* -3* 4 -3* -3 3 3 -1 -2
Do you still remember December's foggy freeze
3 3 -3* -5 -5 5 -3* 4 -3* 4 -3* -5
When the ice that clings on to your beard was screaming agony
3 3 3 3 -3* -5 -5 5 5 -3* 4 -3* -5 -3* 3
And you snatch your rattling last breaths with deep sea diver sounds
3 3 3 3 -3* -5 -5 -5 5 -3* 4 -3* 4 -3* -5
And the flowers bloom like madness in the spring
-3 -3* -3* -3* -3* 4 -3* -3* -3* -5 4 -3* 4
